SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS
NSW Minister for Finance and
Small Business Damien Tudehope
was guest speaker at Monday’s
special combined meeting of
Eastwood Chamber of Commerce,
with the Korean Chamber of
Commerce, Riverside Business
Chamber and Business Connect
and sponsored by Ryde City Council
at Club Eastwood.
Mr Tudehope urged people to get out
and energise Eastwood and support
small businesses.
He said unnecessary panic has been
caused by social media.
“Now is the time more than ever to
get out and support our local
businesses”, he said, “because the real
problem businesses have is when they
don’t have customers and money so
we have to get customers back into
businesses.
“So now more than anything it’s a real
call for Australians, whatever culture
they are, to get out and support small
business”.

“Whether you’re travelling by bike, foot or ferry, these
projects will make the Parramatta CBD more connected

will create a powerful first impression to the many thou-
sands of visitors who come to Parramatta via ferry each
year, as well as provide a bustling meeting place for
residents, workers and visitors.”
